Product Description
Strange transmissions have been received from the 3 remaining residents on the solaris space station. When cosmonaut & psychologist kris kelvin is sent to investigate he experiences the strange phenomena that afflict the solaris crew sending him on a voyage into the darkest recesses of his own consciousness. Studio: Image Entertainment Release Date: 11/26/2002 Run time: 169 minutes Director: Andrei Tarkovsky
The Russian answer to 2001, and very nearly as memorable a movie. The legendary Russian director Andrei Tarkovsky made this extremely deliberate science-fiction epic, an adaptation of a novel by Stanislaw Lem. The story follows a cosmonaut (Donatas Banionis) on an eerie trip to a planet where haunting memories can take physical form. Its bare outline makes it sound like a routine space-flight picture, an elongated Twilight Zone episode; but the further into its mysteries we travel, the less familiar anything seems. Even though Tarkovsky's meanings and methods are sometimes mystifying, Solaris has a way of crawling inside your head, especially given the slow pace and general lack of forward momentum. By the time the final images cross the screen, Tarkovsky has gone way beyond SF conventions into a moving, unsettling vision of memory and home. Well worthy of cult status, Solaris is both challenging art-house fare and a whacked-out head trip. --Robert Horton
